Grade:6 Unit:4 Week:4 Content: Equations and TablesDates: 2/11-2/15

Theme Essential Question:
How can you use numerical and algebraic expressions, equations, and inequalities to solve real life mathematical problems?

Essential Questions:
  • Can students translate between equations and tables?

Standards
  • 6.EE.9 Represent and analyze quantitative relationships between dependent and independent variables. Use variables to represent two quantities in a real-world problem that change in relationship to one another;write an equation to express one quantity, thought of as the dependent variable, in terms of the other quantity, thought of as the independent variable. Analyze the relationship between the dependent and independent variables using graphs and tables, and relate these to the equation. For example, in a problem involving motion at constant speed, list and graph ordered pairs of distances and times, and write the equation d=65t to represent the relationship between distance and time.

Objectives
  • Students will translate between equations and tables

The goal is to help students connect the pieces together. This can be done by having students use multiple representations for the mathematical relationship. Students need to be able to translate freely among the story, words (mathematical phrases), models, tables, graphs and equations. They also need to be able to start with any of the representations and develop the others.
Provide multiple situations for the student to analyze and determine what unknown is dependent on the other components. For example, how far I travel is dependent on the time and rate that I am traveling.
Throughout the expressions and equations domain in Grade 6, students need to have an understanding of how the expressions or equations relate to situations presented, as well as the process of solving them.

The use of technology, including computer apps, CBLs, and other hand-held technology allows the collection of real-time data or the use of actual data to create tables and charts. It is valuable for students to realize that although real-world data often is not linear, a line sometimes can model the data .
